The Divine Comedy – Becoming More Like Alfie (Ukulele)

INTRO: Am A4 Am Am(9)

Am  A4  F7M/G   
Once there was a  

Am  A4  F7M/G 
time,   When my  

Am/F# A4/F# F7M  Em  
mind  lay on   higher things 

{as above} And once there was a time I could find pretty words to sing But now, well now I find It saves time to say what you mean I know it seems so unrefined but it's time to let off some steam Oh come on!

F         D7/F#      Am       Em 
Everybody knows that No means Yes 

        F        D7/F#                 Dm7/G G 
Just like glasses come free on the N. H. S. 

        F      D7/F#               Am          Em 
But the more I look through them the more I see 

      F      G(6)      C 
I'm becoming more like Alfie  

Once there was a time When a kind word could be enough And once there was a time I could blindfold myself with love But not now - now I'm resigned To the kind of life I had reserved For other guys less smart than I Y'know - the kind who will always end up with the girls And besides Everybody knows that No means Yes Just like glasses come free on the N.H.S. But the more I look through them the more I see I'm becoming more like Alfie Oh come on! SOLO {based on Chorus} FINAL CHORD: C7M
